Beautiful gardens. Can hand-feed geese and ducks and feed koi fish as well. Interesting gift shop as well with lots of Japanese snacks and candy and pretty snow globes.

Lovely opportunity to view plantings if you like to take a break now and then. Take my 92 year old dad there and we enjoy it together. Plant sales and vendor weekend are fun opportunities, and they are back on schedule this year. Covid forced cancellation last year. Glad to see them back on calendar!

Is this a park you can drive your car on the paved paths or just walk around the whole thing??

Sylwia Maka | Oct 6, 2018

The park is designed to be a walking experience. Many of the trees along the path are beautiful hidden gems to discover. The walking experience is pavement so it is completely handicap accessible. The drive into the park alone is peaceful and one can easily enjoy some of the beauty from the parking lot area. ..I've attended a few events there and sometimes the weather is not ideal for walking but people still enjoy the venue.

There's a short path you could do in less than an hour but you could spend a whole day there if you mosey around everything and stop for a picnic.

How much is admission?

$6 for adults $3 kids. Sometimes they have free days as well. I believe they are called donation days. Hope this helps. Its a good place to get away from the concrete jungle and be with nature and enjoy the peace.
